About the piece
Painted around 1810, this full-length portrait depicts Catherine Hubscher, the Duchess of Dantzig, famously known as Madame Sans-Gêne. Dressed in a magnificent white gown with intricate gold embroidery and a rich red velvet mantle, she stands in a stately interior defined by deep green drapery and a classic blue chair adorned with fleur-de-lis.
